Arsenal 2004/05 third jersey
Arsenal wore this as a third in 2004/05. Nike made it, O2 was on the front: yellow with blue.
Won the FA Cup, on penalties against Manchester United.
On the garment, the tell is the blue polo collar. We read that, the neck label and the tag before we call one original.

The print gets you close, the colour finishes it
Nike made every Arsenal jersey of the era, so the sponsor dates it. Sega Dreamcast runs to the end of 2001/02, and O2 takes over from 2002/03.
Arsenal wore Nike with the O2 print in 2002/03, 2003/04 and 2004/05. Only in 2004/05 was the third yellow with blue, so the colour settles it. For 2004/05 the tell is the blue polo collar.
The six checks we run on any jersey — the label code, the sleeve badge, the print, and what none of them prove.
What an early-2000s original costs — real asking prices, and the reproduction price an original has to clear.
